AnimeMania January 20, 2022 Share January 20, 2022 Doomlands is a post-apocalyptic animated comedy soaked in dust, beer and blood. It's an homage to Ozploitation and Sci-Fi cinema. Doomlands premieres January 28th on The Roku Channel and is available to stream with a free account. Doomlands began as a 2015 university film project of Australian creator Josh O'Keefe. It then went on to raise $8,493.98 on Kickstarter to crowdfunded a pilot. The show was on its way to becoming a series on Quibi in 2020 until the service shut down and sold their entire content library to Roku, who continued the project working through the pandemic. Doomlands is a penal colony that contains a wealthy walled city called Aurion where a semblance of order has been established, but everywhere else the criminals spend their life sentences driving around in a lawless state, Mad Max style. Doomlands is like Mad Max meets Cheers in the Mos Eisley Cantina. Doomlands has a similar post-apocalyptic setting and mutated denizens that dwell within, but dares to be different by putting our heroes into the comedic situation of having to serve alcohol to this motley crew. Doomlands follows the adventures of the mobile pub, The Oasis, a bar on wheels that crosses the wastelands of this post-apocalyptic world serving beer to the unusual characters who live in this hellish landscape. The owner of The Oasis, is the infamous outlaw Danny Doom (Mark Little) a legend in these parts who seems to have mellowed out with his responsibilities. The Oasis' aspiring bartender Lhandi (Kayla Lorette) has always hoped to meet the wild man that she has heard so much about, but Danny Doom is laid back and not living up to the hype. Lhandi's mistakes, naivety, and recklessness may just force Danny Doom to resume the mantle that earned him his legendary status. Together, the crew of The Oasis face all sorts of challenges, big and small, from desert biker gangs to memory-stealing creeps, to mean graffiti on the walls, all this crew's got to do to survive, is not kill each other. Doomlands is written by Josh O'Keefe, Roger Bainbridge, Brandon Hackett, Kayla Lorette, and Mark Little. Lee Porter and Josh O'Keefe serve as co-showrunners. It was developed by Josh Bowen and produced by Look Mom! Productions. Link to comment
